The PO acquired the car without engine or transmission. He installed a rebuilt engine from AVP and a tailshift trans from a salvage yard and then he passed it on to me. The title says it is a '71. The id plate is missing from the front trunk, but the winshield pillar VIN agrees with the title.

Is the front bumper a '71? What about the 914 2.0 badge on the rear?
The shifter in the car looks like a sideshift unit. How can I tell if that is a conversion bushing in the firewall? I'm planning to replace it and want to order the correct part.

That is a sideshift shift rod, isn't it? If that's a tailshift shift rod, I'm planning to replace the installed trans with a sideshifter.

This just looks wrong...these are sideshift motor mount brackets and motor mounts on a tailshift bar, right?
Are the bar-to-car mounts straight tailshift parts or are they a mix of tail and side parts on this car?

Thanks for the help. I'm starting with *zero* 914 experience and several boxes of parts.
